“iPhone SE has been an incredibly popular choice with our existing users and for new iPhone customers, thanks to its iconic design, exceptional performance and affordable price,” said Kaiann Drance, Apple’s vice-president of worldwide iPhone product marketing.
“This year, we’ve built the most powerful and durable iPhone SE yet, with better battery life, thanks to A15 Bionic, the same chip as our iPhone 13 lineup that also unlocks advanced camera features like Smart HDR 4, Photographic Styles, and Deep Fusion.”
If green is more your colour, there’s also the iPhone 13 in new shades.
The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 phones will now be available in green as well as “alpine green”, and feature the A15 Bionic chip.
The company also launched the M1 Ultra, which it claims is the “world’s most powerful chip for a personal computer”.
This chip will be inside the new iPad Air and the new Mac Studio and Studio Display, which is expected to give the devices a major performance boost.
